Honestly I'm surprised to see this guy is still alive after what he pulled, and what he has pulled in the past with his other companies. Oh well come to Canada to get your generic pills our government just pulls the patent and poof instant supplyComment

this is the affordable part of the Affordable Care Act that was missed. The prices in healthcare need to be regulated, along with insurance companiesYou must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace. -Ernie BanksComment

I heard this...person? interviewed on the drive home today. He's trying to spin what he's doing, but it's blatantly opportunistic and self-serving IMO. I'd actually say "evil." A lot of BS about reinvesting for drug research. Read also the article Mikey linked above--it'll make your guts twist in anger.
I work in healthcare. IMO, it's businessman like Shkrelli (and insurers, as T-bolt notes) that are ballooning care costs. And by the way, some of those businessmen are physicians.WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.Comment

^^^ I think the word "affordable" is lost on the people in insurance, big medical companies and most of the govt.

Yeah, I understand the investments made in research and letting drug cos make enough profit to justify that expense, but jacking up prices on old drugs bothers me. Maybe if you can't beat ém join ém: a lot of the drug cos are publicly traded. GSK has a nice 6% dividend yield...Comment
